I was curious...how is the harmonica noted?

They are particular to a key, for instance A Major, C Major, etc. There are also chromatic harmonicas that have every note, but very few people play them. It's very hard to do well, from what I understand. I believe that there are also pentatonic harps, but I could be wrong.

Sorry, I should have worded that better. I know that certain harmonicas are in certain keys but I was actually wondering how the noting goes...like is it just a few notes of that particular key or is it all of them?

Nevermind...I just googled it. Should have done that in the first place. Man I love Google!

So what did you find on Google? I'm curious...

Wow, really cool, thanks. I've never really played a harmonica and always wondered how they worked. Neat site, thanks again!
